"Mister Su Mu, I don't have any other intentions in making you a Marquis.”
"It is equivalent to having a name in the State of Qin. It will not affect your actions in the slightest.”
"I won't use my identity as Che Hou to bind you.”
Ying Zheng was afraid that Su Mu would overthink things, so he immediately explained.
Su Mu finally understood.
He would only have a name in Great Qin and would still be able to come and go freely. He would not have to stay in Xianyang City.
However, this was also good. It was equivalent to having a new identity.
At the same time, he could also use this identity to explore more mysteries of the Warring States Period.
"Right, Mister Su Mu, you can live in the palace or in Xianyang City.”
"I have already given the order. It is located in the east of Xianyang City. It is where your manor is located. The scenery there is beautiful and the location is excellent. It is the second place besides the Imperial Palace that can overlook the entire Xianyang City!”
Ying Zheng revealed a smile.
In order to make Su Mu stay, he had put in a lot of effort.
This made Su Mu feel touched.
Although Ying Zheng did all this for another reason, the fact that a person could give out orders and make arrangements meticulously showed that he had been thinking about it all the time.
Finally, Su Mu left the palace.
He still decided to go to his own mansion to take a look.
After leaving that thatched cottage, Marquis Che Manor was now his second home.
.........
.........
South of Xianyang City.
The Prime Minister's Residence.
At this moment, there were many officials gathered here.
They had all been under Lu Buwei's tutelage in recent years.
After all, as the saying goes, the Prime Minister's Residence has 3,000 followers.
These three thousand guests not only included the hostages of the other six states, but also the ministers of the Qin State.
All kinds of brocade, silk, gold cakes, and jade were delivered to the Prime Minister's residence every day.
One could imagine why Lu Buwei was unwilling to give up his power.
Countless people had come to Xianyang from thousands of miles away just to see Lu Buwei.
This was the benefit of power.
Let's not talk too much about gossip.
"Lord Prime Minister, what should we do now that the king has done this?”
"Just a while ago, Empress Dowager had conferred Lao Ai the title of Marquis Changxin, and now, Marquis Che is here as well.!”
A court official said to Lu Buwei.
"Yes, Lord Prime Minister!"
"We can't even deal with Marquis Changxin. If the Great King makes another Marquis Che, Great Qin will be in chaos!”
"Moreover, Su Mu, who came back with the king today, has an unknown origin. If he is a spy from another empire, the consequences will be unimaginable!!”
The surrounding ministers also echoed.
Lu Buwei, who had been leaning against the bed, immediately sat up and poured himself a cup of honey.
He had also been thinking about Su Mu's background.
At the same time, he had already sent someone to investigate.
As long as there was any news about Su Mu, he would not let it go.
However, this would take some time.
In the end, Lu Buwei knew that he had to say something or they would feel uneasy.
"Everyone, don't be anxious."
"It's not like you guys don't know the King's attitude today.”
"Whether or not this person is a spy, we still have to find out the situation.”
"It's useless to be anxious now."
With that, Lu Buwei raised his cup with both hands and took a sip.
"Lord Prime Minister, by doing this today, the King of Qin has completely disregarded you!”
"Now that he didn't even ask for your permission to confer the title of Marquis, what would happen in the future?!”
However, at this moment, a high-ranking official from the State of Zhao openly said with a hint of fanning the flames.
When the other ministers heard this, they all frowned.
Lu Buwei raised his head slightly and looked at the person who had spoken, his eyes filled with disgust.
"Men!"
"Throw him out!"
"You are not allowed to enter my residence again!"
Lu Buwei shouted.
A few attendants immediately rushed into the hall and directly chased the high-ranking official of Zhao out with his belongings.
"This kind!"
"You're rat sh * t that came to Great Qin!”
"Everyone, please keep your eyes open!”
Lu Buwei pointed outside.
Then, everyone fell into conversation again.
.........
.........
Back to Su Mu.
He had already arrived outside his mansion in a carriage.
After alighting from the carriage, he raised his head and looked at the plaque on the door of the manor. On it were written the three big words," Marquis Che Manor "!
It was Su Mu's first time living in such a huge mansion.
Compared to his simple thatched cottage, it was like heaven and earth.
The vermilion door exuded an ancient charm. The bluish-white jade steps were filled with heartbreaking petals, and the colorful glazed tiles reflected a gorgeous brilliance.
However, just as Su Mu was about to enter the mansion, the two guards outside the door shouted.
"This is Marquis Che's residence. Those who trespass will be killed!”
As they spoke, the two of them drew their swords from their waists.
"Not bad, but your eyesight needs to be improved.”
Su Mu wasn't angry. At least the two of them were doing their job.
"He is the current Lord Chehou!"
" Do you two not want to live?!"
The coachman hurriedly reminded him.
Hearing the horse groom's words, the two attendants trembled and immediately knelt on the ground." I was blind. I hope you won't blame me!"”
"No worries."
Su Mu waved his hand and walked straight in.
As soon as he entered the door, his eyes suddenly opened up.
The first thing that came into view was a huge maple tree. However, there was not a single maple leaf on the ground. It could be seen that this courtyard was cleaned every day.
After walking around, he realized that this mansion was about the size of a hundred thatched cottages.
Finally, Su Mu returned to his room.
He had long been impatient to summon the Whale Shark King.
After all, it was boring to be alone in this world.
Swoosh!
With a wave of his hand, a blue card appeared in his hand.
Without hesitation, he crushed it.
Whoosh!
The card fragment turned into a blue light and landed in front of Su Mu, slowly condensing into a figure.
When the light dissipated, the Whale Shark King's figure appeared in the room.
" Lord King Mingan?!"
The Whale Shark King knelt on one knee.
When he felt the familiar power in front of him, his body suddenly trembled.
Then, he raised his head and looked at Su Mu.
"Do you remember this king?"
Su Mu said lightly.
"Lord Nether King, I will always remember your teachings!”
"All these years, I've been leading the third parallel universe with the goal of seeing you again one day!”
The Whale Shark King said piously.
Although he couldn't see the slightest shadow of Yama from Su Mu, this aura couldn't be wrong!
The person in front of him was the Nether King!
Su Mu didn't expect that the character summoned by the system would still retain its memories and personality.
However, I still have to mention that the system's products are naturally 100% loyal to the host!
